There are many other factors that also contributed to that accident. Let's be careful in stating a single "cause," especially when the final accident report has not yet been published.
Let's also be careful in reading things into statements that aren't there. The word "because" does not imply "only".
I realize that English may not be your native language, but when "because" is used the way you used it (with a single cause and effect), it does indeed imply "only."
